[quote=JIMMYB,279859]"Is there a reason that a Chinese person would not consider cremation?" Yes, Girz. In most cities, cremation has been implemented well. However, in some rural places, peopel still bury the dead. Haven't heard of 入土为安? In English, it referes to Earth is the best shelter. Influenced by traditional concept, many people think that cremation is too cruel because nothing will be left except a small box of ashes. They just want to keep their relative's bodies intact. Thus, burying in earth is a good choice. Indeed, it is expensive to die. On other hand, it is also expensive to live too because the housing prices and medical treatment fee are too high and unbearable. Life really sucks![/quote]
